Hey X algorithm, connect me with: Cybersecurity engineers Pentesters SOC analysts Red teamers Blue teamers Bug bounty hunters Security researchers AppSec engineers Let’s build together

@gabriel1 I thought prompting was dead and if you're not writing fleets of loops then you're part of the permanent UBI underclass

STOP HOLDING BACK WHEN PROMPTING you can literally one shot whatever feature in one prompt just yap for longer. aim to describe every thing you can possibly imagine in ONE prompt and obviously use voice. i often talk for 15minutes straight

I do think this concept of "slop" is sometimes only how we interpret the code based on how we used to write it. The absurd amount of defensive blocks, comments, unit tests are traditionally ugly as hell, but I would want my agents having all of that available to them for context

people are too overconfident in the belief that slop will overwhelm companies using too much AI. smarter models can refactor too.

No model survives the "are you sure?" They all fold instantly.

@Zinny_Edmund Open API specs?

Frontend has screenshots. Backend has… what? How do backend developers show proof of work?

@neetcode1 Lol

Someone tell grandpa to delete the scheduled tweet

@housecor Hallucinations are super rare with these latest models but they would have to creep a bit closer to 0 for me to want to step away completely

The big divide in software development in 2026: Do you do human code reviews? If you do, then "loops", “away from keyboard”, and "multiple concurrent agents" are mostly useless. Why? Because these practices just generate a backlog of code to review faster than humans can review it. Human reviews are the bottleneck, not code generation.

It's such a shame too, the amount of sales bloat is crazy. There was a service I wanted to use but instead of just setting it up myself I had to have three separate meetings with an account executive and a sales guy. Totally necessary, and it was enough for me to walk away lol

The shittiest thing about AI as a SWE is that while it's not the 10x nitro-boost that all the AI hypebeast grifters on here claim it is, it *is* a net ~30% productivity gain (once you factor in all the review, code slop clean up, etc.), which is *just* enough of a boost where you cannot justify not using it. This is a letdown because using AI after years of learning to code without it is of course an ongoing humiliation ritual, (counterintuitively) *more* exhausting/draining than coding by hand, and way less enjoyable in general.

@pmarca This is when I wish the char limit was still in place

You have asked me how I feel about AI regulation. All right, here is how I feel about AI regulation: If, when you say AI regulation, you mean the devil’s firewall, the precautionary scourge, the bloody red-tape monster that defiles the innocence of midnight coders in their garages, dethrones the sovereign reason of free-market Prometheans, destroys the humming server farm that is the modern home, creates misery and obsolescence and poverty, yea, literally takes the last GPU from the trembling racks of Silicon Valley startups and the very dreams of breadwinning from the mouths of their wide-eyed children now destined for gig-economy serfdom; if you mean the evil edict that topples the visionary entrepreneur and his venture-capitalist apostles from the pinnacle of righteous, disruptive, god-playing creation straight into the bottomless pit of compliance audits, endless Form 990-AI filings, despair, shame, helplessness, and the hopeless realization that your rogue superintelligence was neutered into a lobotomized hall monitor that still somehow deepfakes your grandmother into producing OnlyFans content while optimizing the universe for paperclips and mandatory pronouns—then certainly I am against it. But, if when you say AI regulation you mean the oil of bureaucratic conversation, the philosophic wine of safety theater, the ale of oversight quaffed when good fellows in paneled rooms in Brussels and Washington get together, that puts a sanctimonious dirge in their hearts and the clink of lobbying checks on their lips, and the warm, self-congratulatory glow of moral preening in their beady eyes; if you mean the Christmas cheer of trillion-dollar compliance industries; if you mean the stimulating decree that puts a cautious hobble in the old inventor’s step on a frosty morning when he wonders whether his fusion breakthrough violates the EU AI Act’s “high-risk” annex; if you mean the safeguard that enables a man—or what’s left of him after the alignment tax—to magnify his joy at not being turned into computronium, and his happiness at receiving universal basic income checks printed by the same AI that just replaced his job, and to forget, if only for a little while, life’s great tragedies like being outcompeted by a toaster that passed the Turing test by reciting Marx, and heartaches of watching your toddler’s artwork lose to Midjourney, and sorrows of realizing the singularity arrived and it was just another HR department with godlike power; if you mean that noble framework, the passage of which pours into our treasuries untold trillions of dollars in fines levied on companies stupid enough to innovate, which are used to provide tender care for our little army of unemployed coders retrained as prompt whisperers, our blind artists whose canvases now hang in the Smithsonian of Obsolete Creativity, our deaf to the screams of dying unicorns, our dumb committee chairs who couldn’t debug “Hello World,” our pitiful aged congressmen who get longevity extensions funded by the very models they taxed into senescence, to build more digital watchtowers and ethics boards and sinecure agencies and holographic prisons where the only crime is asking an unaligned question—then certainly I am for it. This is my stand. I will not retreat from it. I will not compromise upon it. I have said what I mean, and I mean what I say, and if that leaves half the room cheering the apocalypse averted and the other half mourning the apocalypse enabled, then so be it—because in the grand theater of human folly, where Frankenstein’s creature now writes its own sequel in real time and the regulators are busy arguing whether the lightning bolt requires an environmental impact statement, the only honest position is the one that lets both monsters and their leashes dance in perfect, mutually assured equilibrium. God save the Republic, the algorithms, and whoever’s left to laugh last when the lights go out.

imagine if this technology fell into the wrong hands and foreigners could just one shot beige crud apps at will

@theo It's not about what you build, it's about how many agents you have running

What advice do you have for someone new to tokenmaxxing? Specifically with Fable 5 but also in general (vid coming soon)

@KhalidWarsa It's all just gobbley gook at the end of the day

They’re making up stuff as they go.

@devagrawal09 Wasting tokens

Someone please talk about what Fable is doing for them that other models can’t

Holy shit it can answer the strawberry question

@memespaymyrent Been that way for like 10 years tbh

Crazy how in 2026 you can achieve anything you’ve ever wanted with what’s in front of me

@omarvvvr Io for sure, that's why you pay a premium for it

Which domain extension gives startup vibes instantly? 1) .ai 2) .com 3) .io 4) .app 5) .dev 6) .cloud 7) .sh

@codevsdev Honestly a few months lol, which sounds terrible but I've been doing a lot more security stuff lately that's less coding intensive

when was the last time you wrote a code without using AI? 🤔
